What is included in the frunk of 997.2 turbo S

Hey guys, I am picking a 2011 turbo monday and wanted to make sure everything is there, toolkit..etc
It has centerlock wheels and when asked the socket was not there so they ordered me a new one from Porsche. I know it should also have an air compressor and can of flat tire stuff. But what should I expect in the way of a tool kit or anything else you could think of
Thanks Mike

Sobrut911 is infamous around these parts
It should also have small tool kit and tow hook.

When you pick the car up, get the owner's manual, look in the index under "tools" and you'll be referred to a page (with pictures) on what you should have and where to find it - lots of little storage spaces in the trunk.

I didn't know to do this. I am missing a specialty tool that is to jiggle the center locking mechanism around after you finish changing out a tire. I don't know the proper name or the part number.


There is a black, Styrofoam looking thing that has inserts for it and the lug nut. Ensure all pieces are there. I recall a toolkit of sorts, but don't remember what all is in the kit.


The owner's manual reference is a very good idea.


Cheers to another Turbo owner!

You do realize there is not a spare tire in the trunk to change out if you get a flat. That is the main reason I could not use my car for long drives as you could be really screwed if you got a flat a hundred or so miles from home.
